Hi, I'm Ransom, and I like to tell stories. Sometimes I tell them with words, sometimes with pictures, often with both. I grew up on a farm on the Eastern shore of Maryland and also in a little house by the beach in Englewood, Florida where I got very tan and swam every day until I became half fish. I started writing stories when I was young, on an old typewriter that jammed and longhand on legal pads. When I was a little older I got a camera for Christmas and became obsessed with photography, and when I was a little older still my friends and I came into possession of a half-broken video camera and began to make our own movies, starring ourselves, using our bedrooms and backyards for sets. I have loved writing stories and taking photographs and making movies ever since, and have endeavored to do all three.
As a kid, Jacob formed a special bond with his grandfather over his bizarre tales and photos of levitating girls and invisible boys. Now at 16, he is reeling from the old man's unexpected death. Then Jacob is given a mysterious letter that propels him on a journey to the remote Welsh island where his grandfather grew up. There, he finds the children from the photographs--alive and well--despite the islanders’ assertion that all were killed decades ago. As Jacob begins to unravel more about his grandfather’s childhood, he suspects he is being trailed by a monster only he can see. A haunting and out-of-the-ordinary read, debut author Ransom Rigg’s first-person narration is convincing and absorbing, and every detail he draws our eye to is deftly woven into an unforgettable whole. Interspersed with photos throughout, Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children is a truly atmospheric novel with plot twists, turns, and surprises that will delight readers of any age.
被书的封面所吸引,满心欢喜的以为是带着恐怖色彩的悬疑小说,看后却超级郁闷的发现,本书应该归为少年读物,像我这样年龄的读者,实在有点超龄了。 本书最吸引人的莫过于其中有很多真实的照片,作者别出心裁的找到很多奇离奇古怪的老照片,像书的封面那张悬浮着的女孩、装在...
评分由于提前看了《佩小姐》,所以看书的时候很有画面感,所以读起来毛骨悚然的哈哈~ 说说电影和书的区别吧,应该说电影版还原了80%第一部小说的内容,唯一的区别就是小说中和男主角jacob以及他爷爷谈恋爱的是玩火女孩emma,而在电影中,虽然隐约体现了jacob,emma和enoch的三角关...
评分如果说《命运交叉的城堡》是高级的,中学的看图作文是初级的,本书不上不下,算是一本中级看图说话。作者不可能是先写完小说再去配照片,但也不会是完全从照片出发的。估计最大的可能是受到照片的启发写出了整个故事的大纲,再把每张照片嵌入故事,并调整图文细节使之严丝合缝...
评分黑白色的世界里,一个孤零零的女孩站在那里,纯洁的白色裙子……看起来就让人心疼,我想她不是一个具体的人,她是我们心灵的象征,是我们内心最柔软之处的象征。 是的,兰萨姆•里格斯的奇幻之旅是心灵之旅,个人认为它与哈利•波特并不相同,这是一部借助奇幻表现亲情及...
评分在看过电影《哈利波特》、《X战警》之后,你相信这世界上有拥有超能力(魔法)的人存在吗?你如果以为那些都是虚幻的故事,那么,在读过有图有真相的《怪屋女孩》后,你还会这样认为吗? 《怪屋女孩》讲述的是一个奇幻惊悚的故事,作者别出心裁的把几十幅真实存在过的古老灵...
